The TTB biometric block shock

[Gaccha]

Just like some of the other banks TTB has a requirement to go to the bank to provide biometric/facial verification. They provided very little notice of this. I did not see the notice until the day after it went into effect.

 

What is shocking about the TTB situation is that they lock you into the limit that you set on the account and will not allow that to be changed until 9th of September. 

 

Since I had my daily limit set at zero baht I now have no way to transfer/use online a single baht until September. By providing my biometrics I can now, however, withdraw at the bank counter and via the card at an ATM. 

 

This is a fairly shockingly inept service by TTB. At least with the other banks once you did the biometrics everything went back to normal immediately.
